๐ Favourite daily quotes from readwise.io/@louis
The so-called instinct of causality is nothing more than the fear of the unfamiliar, and the attempt at finding something in it which is already known.โIt is not a search for causes, but for the familiar.
The Will to Power
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
Not if it was done by way of prescription. If a desire for the Truth is in someoneโs bones, then he will not stop until he finds it. Not because he should. But because he has no choice.
Direct Truth - Uncompromising, Non-Prescriptive Truths to the Enduring Questions of Life
Kapil Gupta
Why has that man fallen in love with that woman? Because she's pretty. Why does pretty matter? Because human beings are a mainly monogamous species and so males are choosy about their mates (as male chimpanzees are not); prettiness is an indication of youth and health, which are indications of fertility: Why does that man care about fertility in his mate? Because if he did not, his genes would be eclipsed by those of men who did. Why does he care about that? He does not, but his genes act as if they do. Those who choose infertile mates leave no descendants. Therefore, everybody is descended from men who preferred fertile women, and every person inherits from those ancestors the same preference.
